Turn frequently.

Wash and trim the mushrooms.

Scrub and trim the daikon and slice into 1” thick pieces.

Separate the bok choy leaves, rinse and pat them dry.

Set aside.

Slice the white stems into 1” thick pieces. Marinate the mushrooms, daikon and bok choy stems for 15 minutes.

Brush bok choy leaves with marinade.

To skewer the leaves, fold the sides of each leaf in toward the middle and roll up the leaf, starting at the top.

Thread the leaf packet onto wooden skewers alternately with the mushrooms, tofu, daikon and bok choy stem.

On a closed grill, grill the skewers for 12 to 15 minutes, turning to cook all sides.

Serve and enjoy!
